Although I handed it out in October, we are finally getting to start reading parts of our book Evicted.  We are only reading portions of the non-fiction book, but these parts are powerful and impactful.  They connect with the content of what we have covered (poverty in Milwaukee) and help further fuel the “why” behind our desire to help those in need and make our world a better place.

As we read, students will be given different levels of questions to help further direct their thinking as it relates to what they are reading.  They all have a copy of the book (thanks in large part to the Judee Ross Imagination Grant) so feel free to read along with them/steal the book when they are not looking.

It really is an amazing read, especially as it centers around our city and neighbors.
